For some reason I had your thread and another mixed up about lighting plexi. I thought yours had the etched graphics.

So will your marquee not be backlit at all now?
Or did you go with a basic backlit setup from the sounds of it? (light+clear plexi+marquee)
Not a technician . . . . just a DIY'er.

the marquee is going to be backlight the basic way. The only thing I'm doing different is the control panel overlay.
